this. when you cook it with onions together, you will end up steaming the meat as the onions release all their moisture. one huge tip if you are new is to simply cook dissimilar components separately - meat in particular. you'll want to sear the beef as that anon said, which will leave fat (oil) and fond (brown bits) in the pan. you then remove the meat temporarily once you get a nice browning on the exterior (don't worry about cooking it through yet - should be undercooked inside), add a little extra butter or oil and cook your onions in that til you get some brown on them, add your peppers next, and if at any point things seem to be more black than brown and you smell burning, dump some red wine in the pan and scrape up all the brown bits - you'll see it starts to create kind of a pan gravy. let the moisture cook off that if you want to further brown the veggies (dry means you can brown it - wet will just steam), add the meat back in once you like how the veggies look, stir together, and THEN cook the meat to whatever doneness you want - I'd suggest keeping it at least pink inside for beef. if you want a little bit of gravy, add some water, reduce the heat or remove entirely from the burner (latent heat will continue cooking things), and add a cornstarch slurry is easiest - mix a little cornstarch with water in a separate glass, make sure it combines and you don't have dry powder, then add to your dish but only a LITTLE at a time, you won't need much - tablespoon or two. as you stir and it sits it will thicken the thin pan gravy. Lord at your side, anon... with a bit of practice you will do fine. never use nonstick pans either if you don't know that already.
